@MichaelScheele UA has shot down 2 A-50s (in the same area) and hit one on the ground with a drone. The most RU had were 7-9 (claimed) I believe it to be closer to 7 with the others acting as parts bins. No matter, losing 2 and maybe a third (even for a time) is a huge loss. That was in FEB so even if they got the damaged one going again it left a big hole of a blind spot for RU. Going from 7 to 4 hurts.

They've been trying to for 10yrs. They keep running into technical difficulties. Cost overruns and tech supply issues. Especially now as you allude to. The ruble isn't worth a literal dime.

As of FEB UA has shot down 6 SU-35s and 25 SU-34s and 2 A-50s (with one being damaged on the ground by a drone).

@MichaelScheele They can't make any more. They literally can't afford to lose any more. They don't have the money and can't get the tech needed to build them. I agree with you. RU is in a conundrum.

@skullrevenant9573 6 SU-35s have been shot down by Ukraine already. they aren't as good as they're being touted as. Dangerous? Sure any aircraft is or can be...but the su35 isn't what RU is claiming them to be 4++++++++ ad nauseum. Every modern aircraft can 'see' them and down them before the su35 can even get close enough to do anything. SU35 will never see it coming until it's too late.
